The soldiers had no choice but to obey the cold orders. However, when they used the siege logs to hit the pile of corpses in front of the city gates, their hands went limp. They had never been so shocked before!
This was truly stepping through a mountain of corpses and a sea of fire! Everyone seemed to have been baptized by blood and tears!
GongYimo was even more ruthless. She pushed the captives onto the city walls and made them shout in unison!
"Those who enter the city, put down your weapons and we will spare your lives!"
"Those who enter the city, put down your weapons! We will spare your lives! "
The siege logs were knocked away from the burning pile of corpses. The first batch of people who rushed into the city looked around blankly. The first thing they saw was not the enemy, but their own people!
They were all held hostage by the garrison. The garrison shouted loudly.
"The princess is merciful and does not wish to be killed. If you put down your weapons, we will spare your lives! Otherwise, your companions will die in front of you! "
They habitually looked back, only to find that after the thousand people who rushed in, no one else came in. After a few explosions, they knew that the people behind them must have been stopped. On the other hand, they only had a thousand people. There was no way they could win!
Therefore, if they did not want to die, they could only surrender!
When the first person put down his weapon, many others followed suit. However, in the process of taking in the captives, the garrison followed GongYimo's orders and tied them together in pairs. At this moment, one person suddenly resisted!
It was not enough for the garrison to kill him directly. They also killed the people around him!
"The princess has ordered that we form pairs. If one person resists, we will kill both of them!"
This sentence instantly pulled everyone apart. Many of them were afraid of being implicated by the other party. In the end, after everyone was tied up, there was no second person who resisted.
Shang Mingxi exclaimed in amazement. GongYimo's step-by-step psychological warfare was simply godly!
No matter if it was the fire belt intimidation at the beginning, the mysterious weapons, the mountain of corpses and the sea of fire, or now the two-on-two groups, they were all suppressing and dividing the enemy.
From the mental aspect, it gave the enemy a feeling of surprise and unpredictability. The series of attacks made the enemy think that they would win from the beginning! Later on, it turned into panic, and then into fear. In the end, the thought that the enemy was too high to reach was born in his heart. It had only taken him a few hours to do all of this!
In the end, Shang Mingxi was somewhat horrified to discover that after a few battles, less than two hundred of the eight thousand men of the garrison had been killed or injured, while the enemy had lost nearly ten thousand men! What kind of gap was this?!
If it wasn't for the fact that they were in a hurry to prepare for the battle, and that many of the decisions were made at the last minute, and GongYimo had been given more time to prepare, the sixty thousand people on the other side would have suffered a crushing defeat!
Obviously, the Empress Dowager also realized this problem. She could not stop. If she gave GongYimo another night to prepare, she would definitely lose. Therefore, she could not retreat even if she was beaten back again and again. She ordered the army to attack! Anyone who breached the city gate would be promoted by one level, and those who killed ten people would be promoted by another level! The more tired they were, the higher the rewards. In the evening, both sides were in a killing frenzy!
GongYimo rubbed the space between her eyebrows. She felt a deep sense of exhaustion. She had not rested since they had escaped to this place yesterday. She had saved people from the sea of fire!
If it had been any other time, she would have killed them long ago!
She was never a person who planned strategies behind the scenes. She was a person who led her subordinates to charge and break through enemy lines, and then changed the troops at the last minute! However, her feet were in excruciating pain, and the wounds all over her body had not been treated. She could not recklessly charge down to kill people like before!
"How many fire vats are left?"
Shang Mingxi respectfully replied, "Five more!"
She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was full of energy again. "Tell the rear to speed up the preparations. If the city gate is lost, immediately activate the second plan. Now, prepare the trebuchets, rolling logs, and boiling water. We are going to fight with force with force!"
Shang Mingxi said, "They still have nearly fifty thousand people, and we only have eight thousand. How can we defeat them with fewer people? Why don't we just retreat? "
"No!" A shrewd calculation flashed in GongYimo's eyes. "At least ten thousand people have to be killed before we can retreat. Now, open the city gate. While creating obstacles for the following enemies and controlling the number of people who come in, we have to kill the enemy with all our strength! Send two hundred people to throw corpses and pile up the mountain of corpses in front of the city gate again. When it is too difficult to control, put down the broken stone of the city gate to buy time. In short, we have to kill another ten thousand people before we can retreat! "
Otherwise, she could not guarantee that the follow-up arrangements would be smooth.
"Yes!"
Shang Mingxi hurriedly left. The city gate was wide open, and many people rushed in. On the city wall, stones and rolling logs were constantly falling down. In addition to the mountain of corpses that had been piled up again, the fire in front of the city gate was soaring to the sky. There were corpses everywhere!
In the evening, the sky was still bright, but the billowing black smoke and the fire turned the sky into the color of burning clouds! The black smoke was rolling in the sky, and the fire was burning below. The smell of burnt corpses and flesh was everywhere, and the smell of blood and smoke filled the air. It was a scene of purgatory on earth!
The people outside the city kept trying to break through the mountain of corpses and rush in, and inside the city, there were also sounds of fighting and killing. Seeing that the situation was out of control, GongYimo made a prompt decision to put down the broken stone of the city gate, and for the last time, kept the enemies outside the city gate!
There were five or six thousand people rushing in, and it was not easy to control them. However, the garrison still had the advantage in terms of numbers. But a broken stone could not stop the enemy. Once the broken stone was broken, the city gate could not be closed again … They could only retreat!
GongYimo was actively preparing for the battle, and the people in the city were preparing the things that GongYimo wanted. She would not lose, no matter what, how could she lose?!
But now, winning or losing was one thing, and whether she could hold on was another thing. Seeing her pale face, Shang Mingxi hurriedly asked her if she needed to rest.
GongYimo looked up, and her pupils shrank, and she directly stepped back! Then, she blocked the enemy's killing move with her sword!
Now, it was a situation of life and death. The Empress Dowager had many masters under her command, but only Hai Qing could bypass all the obstacles and jump onto the city wall of Snow City!
She gritted her teeth. She was worried that GongYimo would have another move, so she did not even care about her own safety and sent Hai Qing to kill GongYimo!
As long as GongYimo was dead, Snow City would not be a threat!
Hai Qing also suffered a lot of injuries in the battle, but most of them were minor injuries. Compared to GongYimo, he was nothing!
Therefore, he pressed on step by step, vowing to behead Gong Yi Mo here!
GongYimo was fighting with him, and at the same time, she was paying attention to the situation on the battlefield!
She was tired and in pain, and her inner strength was empty. She was not as strong as she wanted to be.
When masters fought, the people on the city wall did not dare to rashly intervene. GongYimo also consciously protected them, so that they would not be distracted and concentrate on defending.
Their ears were filled with the sound of killing. Every time GongYimo moved, blood would be left on the ground. Every step was no less than stepping on the edge of a blade!
